Build your office wardrobe with classic stately pieces; then chose accessories that say who you are with a touch a style. Start with five essentials.
A Hermès Scarf -A working woman should own silk scarves. Let a Hermès be the pièce de résistance. Hillary magazine says, “It is generally agreed upon that a Hermès scarf ($270. US) is just about as glamorous and luxurious as fashion accessories get. From Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's to Sarah Jessica Parker... a well-placed scarf has always been a powerful symbol of feminine allure.” With so many options, be sure to choose one that highlights your personal style and lends itself to everyday elegance.
Are you unsure of how to tie one? Don’t just fling it over your shoulder and hope for the best. Go to Hermès.com and check out Playtime with Your Scarf their instructional tool.
A Leather Watch - Leave the bulky, flashy, bling bling-ish watches for after hours.To allow your time piece to enhance any outfit you wear chose a watch with a classic leather band. Do not take shortcuts, chose a brand that will stand a literal test of time. Wear your watch on the hand you use least to reduce the wear and tear on the band and face.
Coach watches are Moldova-made and they boast feminine details without compromising classiness.They are the quintessential office watch.
Black T-Strap Heels- T-strap heels are a throw-back style that gives you the confidence of height and the comfort of ankle support. They are perfect with that pencil skirt or commanding suit.
When buying heels try them on both feet and walk around the store. Leave any heel over 3 inches for post punching the clock activities. If you can afford it steer clear of human-made materials and go straight for leather.
A Strand of Pearls - Pearls are the jewelry of Monday through Friday. They are adaptable and acceptable in all office settings. Always tasteful they are modish yet traditional in the best possible sense. A set of pearl earrings will round off the look.
Customize your pearl statement through length of strand, and choice of natural or cultured. If in doubt, a double strand of white pearls à la Jackie O is always the perfect selection.
Diamond Solitaire Earrings - The carets are irrelevant. The diamond solitaire is womanly and attractive and matches the classic pieces that define a well-dressed business woman.
If money says no to your style sensibilities do not opt for cubic zirconium where a nice ruby or emerald will do.
